Have you Guys ever thought about it: in our dire need to earn a living, we forget to live! I don't know with you but I believe I went through this many times in my life already. There were "sober" times when I still remember to stroll early in the morning to breath fresh air or to just sit outside the porch to relax a few minutes, but most of the time my life has been very busy trying to earn a living and forgetting to live a real life in the process. Isn't it ridikculously funny and ironical?!
How about you?

this is the problem with most of us but we can't do anything we have just take it and accept the things and do the things this is only we can say.

I have to agree with you. Sometimes, I am thinking like that but when take another look at it, I realize that I still love my work. I may feel burnout and stress at times but I cannot change my job over other jobs because I am happy all ready with my colleagues and my superiors. I know I will never find other jobs more rewarding that the job I have right now. Whenever I see that my effort is being paid off, I realize, it is worth the stress after all.

it is difficult to live the life we desire as the complexity of the world we are living in today requires it.everything cost a lot today.we are slogging our guts out to meet the rising costs of living.we have little time for ourselves and our loved ones.sometimes,it is easy to lose ourselves in the race for money.be sure to take some time off to do the things u like and forget about the hustle and bustle of the city.live your life to the fullest!
